The font issue was - not - solved using the new ISO. Instead I used the "DPI" hint in the link I just posted above your reply. For that you will need to edit the "xorg.conf" by hand.
I had this (tiny font) problem.. Took my an hour to fix.. But here goes :
In /etc/xorg.conf.
I added to the monitor Section:
I googled it.. more people used that fix.
Fun fact : If you make a typo xbmcbuntu won't start anymore. You need to start in recovery mode to fix it
In /etc/xorg.conf.
I added to the monitor Section:
Code:
Option "DPI" "96 x 96 "I googled it.. more people used that fix.

Thank you for the link moonwhaler. Dpi I issue was fixed by the help in the guide. Although the 200x200 setting still looks a bit big. I might have to try 96x96 as the guy above has. Kudos on googling it aswell because I trawled through the Linux help sites to no avail.

Thank you for these replies. The new ISO does not change anything to this problem. I will now switch to the "vanilla" Eden Beta 3 ISO and apply the DPI trick.
We should create a ticket on Trac for this bug, shouldn't we?

Just tried version 3.4, and I have tiny fonts so that I can't read anything in the installer

v35 and possibly official RC1 is on its way - this is the only issue that remains to be tackled

setting
Option "DPI" "96 x 96"
in "Monitor" section in /etc/X11/xorg.conf works for me.

Sorry to resurrect an old thread, but there's no /etc/X11/xorg.conf file on my system.
There's one called xorg.conf.08302014, but it doesn't seem to have any effect when I add the DPI settings there.

i had a similar file, just did a "cp /etc/X11/xorg.conf.08302014 /etc/X11/xorg.conf" and edited the new xorg.conf
